Join a scenic full-day trip from Sofia to Bulgaria’s iconic Seven Rila Lakes. Take a chairlift to the starting point and hike through spectacular alpine landscapes with an experienced guide. Visit all seven glacial lakes, known for their crystal-clear waters and breathtaking views. Suitable for moderately active travellers, this adventure offers a perfect escape into nature. Includes return transport, and professional guide..
We depart from Sofia and drive for approximately 2 hours to the start of the hike from where we ascend 25 minutes by a 2-person chair lift to an elevation of 2000 metres. This is the starting point of our hike to 2500 metres above sea level.
Good physical fitness is required, and customers are responsible for carrying appropriate clothing and footwear for high altitude weather conditions.
A 2 hour walk with breathtaking panoramic views of the lakes is then followed by a 30-minute lunch break. We then continue walking for approximately 1.5 hours before our return journey, again via the chairlift, to Sofia.
